The VideoLAN Forums

Hi, I'm try to take a radio feed (via freeview so it has some kind of mpeg feed and therefore an empty video track I guess) and have a picture showing while the audio is playing, e.g you hear the audio and see a picture. i tried doing this using the additional sources / input slave method but only one or the other ever works.

Is there a way to achieve this?

Thanks in advance

Input slave is broken. You could use streaming to combine stuff, but that requires multiple VLC instances.

How could one do this then if input slave is broken? Thanks.

Start multiple VLC instances, use one to capture video and another one to capture audio.

I'm sending out the stream to a SDP file. Does using the same SDP file work with seperate instances?

AFAIK no. VLC instance that is run later will overwrite the first file.
